. YugaLabs Co-Founder GordonGoner speaks frankly on his recent health issues and refutes accusations of racist and Nazi imagery embedded within the Bored Ape Yacht Club NFT project.
that he is very ferocious with non-devotees. So, all in all, it’d be an absurdly f**cking bizarre thing for me to sponsor back in 2017 if I didn’t actually believe in it, and certainly not something someone using Kali Yuga in some ironic neo-Nazi way would have done.Oddly enough, Greg proposed Yuga as the company name. He knew the word Yuga meant something to me.
Another point I’d like to make: Sometimes these allegations reference that we didn’t mention the Sanskrit"Yuga means Era" meaning behind our name until much later, that at first we simply highlighted the Zelda reference. The answer to that is simple: We were being attacked for months with the allegation that"Kali Yuga" was only some kind of co-opted term associated with obscure internet hate groups.
Our logic was that any sane human being would have accepted the fact that I’m Jewish by heritage and that my co-founders are all children of immigrants, and that should have been enough evidence that we weren’t secret Neo-Nazis. How wrong we were! Last point: If you think I’m a deeply left-leaning person, deeply into Hinduism and Buddhism for years, but somehow would want to troll people with obscure and fringe alt/far-right secret coded messages, I think you have a f**cking screw loose.So that’s about it. I'm not a Nazi. I have heart failure. I look like a giant in photos.
